history
Maidelberg belonged to the possessions of the Diocese of Olomouc . It was first mentioned in a document as "Deuziz" in a will of the Olomouc bishop Bruno von Schauenburg from November 29, 1267, which he established because of his imminent participation in the crusade against the Pruzzen . In this will, the villages around Hotzenplotz are listed that were founded by him and then those villages that existed earlier. "Deuziz" is listed under the latter.
An early Gothic moated castle is documented for the year 1385. It was badly damaged in 1474 during the Bohemian-Hungarian conflict. In 1535 Maidelberg acquired the Counts of Würben , who began to rebuild the castle. At the end of the 16th century Maidelberg was owned by the Sedlnitzky von Choltitz , who built a renaissance building on the site of the moated castle in 1591–1593. Since Karl Christoph Seldnitzky von Choltitz was involved in the Bohemian Estates uprising in 1618 , the Maidelberg rule was confiscated by the Emperor after the Battle of the White Mountain and handed over to the Teutonic Order.

After the abolition of patrimonial the municipality of Maidelberg belonged to the district administration Jägerndorf . In 1898 Maidelberg was connected to the Röwersdorf – Hotzenplotz narrow-gauge railway .
After the Munich Agreement , Dívčí Hrad / Maidelberg was added to the German Reich in 1938 and belonged to the Jägerndorf district until 1945 . After the Second World War , the German residents were expelled .
At the end of 1960 the Okres Krnov was dissolved and Dívčí Hrad was assigned to the Okres Bruntál. From 1962 to 1969 the houses destroyed at the end of the war in 1945 and the castle were rebuilt or reconstructed.
